it's in our genes....

to be silly and goofy
and
climb trees
~~
this is my sister
~
my hubby and I did their family photo shoot yesterday
and
laughed until our eyes filled with tears
~~
there's something special about photographing family
~
I guess it's because I know they love me
no matter what I do or say
so the whole experience ends up just being pure crazy fun
~~
there are about a million more photos from this shoot
and
sometime this week I'll get a few more posted
so you can really get a feel for the overall silliness
that swallowed me up yesterday

Oh how wonderful Beth, I think I would have known your sister if I passed her on the street. Are you twins? I am glad you had such a fun time, can't wait to see the rest, I hope there is a jumping one! Big hug Beth!

Your sister seems as delightful as you. How I wish I had that kind of family. I only have one brother...a Mr. Spock sort of guy and he is on the opposite coast from me. We rarely see each other - during a recent visit to my mom in GA, I finally met my great neice and nephew and saw both my nephews which was nice...but family events are VERY few and far between!

Deborah said...

Me too, I missed out on having a sister, and so did my daughter. Can't imagine how wonderful it must be sometimes.

Holly said...

My goodness, the two of you resemble each other! Wow. I didn't get a sister, but I'm blessed in that my Sister-in-law and I long since dropped the In-Law part and we simple think and call ourselves sister. I love her. So, I understand this post of yours. Love to you!

So fun to have a sis who takes pics... she is lucky. Sounds like you both are!

Catherine said...

Cute picture! Wow - you two sure look alike! Fun and silly pictures sometimes make the best shot ~ indeed!

Jamie said...

Oh my goodness, we did my family pictures yesterday too! Ours went a little haywire though. Glad you guys had fun and I can't wait to see the rest!

You and your sister are definite look-a-likes! Family is just the best for letting your hair down and enjoying every single moment!

Silly is what keeps our hearts beating - that and climbing trees, definitely!

You guys look a lot alike! But I guess you get a lot of that too. Cutie-pie(s)!

Tree. Woman. Climb. It must be done!

Patti said...

What a fun day that looked like!!! She looks so much like you- so much resemblance! I hear you about the weather(in regard to what you posted on my blog)- but I don't remember much of it- my mom died a year ago yesterday so I was preoccupied. I bet you are loving this week's weather!

Beth said...

“Silly, goofy, pure crazy fun, love & laughter” – describes what it’s like being with my family!
Aren’t we lucky to have such families?

suzyQ said...

So fun! There is nothing better than family. (except photographing them)

Roban said...

Oh, my, you two look a lot alike! A spirit of fun definitely shines through! Can't wait to see more....

Vicky said...

I think the crazy fun you must have had together is coming through the photo! I have to agree with everyone else, you do look alike! How fun to have a sister nearby :) Would love to see more!

Michelle Johnson said...

you two have to be twins because you look just alike. what a fun day it appears you've had with your family.

Jeanie said...

You and your sister look alike! Probably everyone else said that, too! Glad John is home to help you with that -- and just to be home!

Kamana said...
